KitchenAid has Christmas covered with the NEW Black Stainless Steel Twelix Artisan Oven

Getting your kitchen turkey-ready doesn’t mean you have to compromise on style.

Embrace this inky shade and enjoy the downright cool of the KitchenAid 60cm Twelix Multi-Function Oven. The stainless steel exterior, hand brushed in black with anti-fingerprint technology and Soft-Close doors is not only chic, it also serves as the best sous chef you could hope for in your kitchen.

The Twelix Artisan Oven skilfully combines three different cooking methods: standard convection, steam-assisted, and pure steam. A plug in steam accessory at the back of the oven and a covered tray create the ideal environment for cooking impeccably steamed dishes. By selecting just part of this accessory, the oven space can use both ventilation and steam methods. With Pure Steam restaurant quality results are guaranteed whether you’re doing a dinner for two or preparing a festive feast for family and friends.

The pre-programmed steam functions produce different combinations of steam and ventilation. Choose one to suit your recipe and the oven automatically sets the correct temperature and the amount of steam needed. The standard function can both roast (a family sized bird) and manage low temperatures for slow cooking, drying fruit and even making yogurt. If you’re up to creating your own canapes, the Twelix-Base function heats the lower ring element to guarantee beautifully baked vol-au-vents and bruschetta or whatever your pastry-shaped heart desires.

Professional accessories include the temperature probe which measures the exact core temperature of food during cooking (vital for a stuffed turkey) and switches off the oven automatically when the perfect temperature is reached.

The KitchenAid Chef Touch sous vide system is a three-part set-up that includes a Steam Oven, Vacuum Sealer and Shock Freezer. The three built-in pieces stack on top of each other, forming a vertical row of shiny silver. Using bags made of a special plastic, first vacuum seal the food to eliminate almost all of the air to slow down the biological and enzymatic activities of the ingredients. Next, pop it in the Steam Oven which slowly cooks the food at a precisely controlled temperature using one of 10 different settings. The shock freezer then instantly cools the dish at about 3°C in an hour. You then have three months to consume you fancy feast, and upon thawing will retain its consistency.

Each piece is available separately, the complete KitchenAid Chef Touch Tower, RRP £11,000, is available from the KitchenAid Experience Store.
